    'GB do have a chance'

    If the British girls can keep this together, they really do have a fighting chance.

    GB heading to bars - what can Downie deliver?

    Gymnastics - women's team final

    Sonia Oxley
    BBC Sport in Paris

    Bars is next up for GB - they will be counting on another big performance from Becky Downie, who has qualified for the individual final on this apparatus.

    She said it was going to be a particularly emotional day as the date is the birthday of her brother, who died three years ago shortly before she was due to compete in Olympic trials that she then pulled out of.

    Gymnastics - women's team final

    GB's Alice Kinsella has just upped her qualification score on the uneven bars to 13.300.

    That is a great start for Team GB on a notoriously difficult piece of apparatus.

  4. 'Dutch haven't just rolled over'

    The Dutch have been good value out here. It does take two to make an interesting match, and they haven’t just rolled over.

    Wondering how hot it actually is in Paris?

    It’s stick on the sprinklers and jump in front of the water hot.

    The irrigation hoses used to cultivate the grass square in the Jardin des Mousquetaires, and the flower beds around Roland Garros, have been turned on.

    They've also been turned around to allow fans to drench, drink and droll in a bid to keep cool.

    How it stands

    Standings after 2 rotations

    Team USA lead the standings after two rotations, with Italy currently in second place and China in third.

    Team GB are less than two points shy of the medals as it stands in fourth place.

    Great Britain are on the uneven bars next.

    Alice Kinsella will go first for GB, followed by Georgia Mae-Fenton and Rebecca Downie.

    Ros Canter won gold for Team GB yesterday and there's a special podcast reflecting on her journey to gold on BBC Sounds now, as part of the Grassroots to Glory series. Have a listen here.

    And for the boxing fans, there's an episode with Delicious Orie, who lost by split decision to Davit Chaloyan in the men's 92kg. That's here.

  9. How the 'photo of the Olympics' came about

    French photographer Jerome Brouillet captured this iconic image of Brazilian surfer Gabriel Medina at the surfing. This video explains how the scene came about.

  10. 'Spain need to neutralise Koolhof'

    Tennis - men's doubles second round: Alcaraz/Nadal 6-4 3-4 Griekspoor/Koolhof

    Sam Smith
    Former British number one on BBC Red Button

    I’m sure there’s been a lot of discussions of how to neutralise Wesley Koolhof. He’s an athletic mover at the net, he times it brilliantly, he’s been out there for a long term and they’ve got to figure out how to neutralise him and just make him a little unsure of where to move after the serve.

  11. Weather watch

    Rain

    Somehow, despite skies like this, it is pouring down with rain at La Défense Arena.

    I’m not complaining after how hot it has been today.

  12. gymnastics

    Gymnastics - women's team final

    This is a fantastic display of elite gymnastics.

    Georgia Mae-Fenton has scored 13.800 for her vault and Alice Kinsella 13.966

    Ruby Evans is the last to go and she makes a difficult vault look rather easy.

    She matches Kinsella's score of 13.966 and Team GB are going well at the halfway mark.

  13. gymnastics

    No new skill but a very happy-looking Biles

    Sonia Oxley
    BBC Sport in Paris

    Biles didn't do the new skill but she did do a wonderful bars routine.

    This is a really different Biles to in qualifying - a lot of high-fiving her team-mates. She looks relaxed and just really happy at the end of that.

    Well, it is going rather well after all...

    'Biles fizzing with energy'

    Gymnastics - women's team final

    Eleanor Oldroyd
    Gymnastic commentator on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Simone Biles is absolutely fizzing with energy. We were a little worried [heading into this final] because she had a little calf issue in qualifying but no sign of that now. High fives from her team-mates.

  15. Argentina win to qualify and eliminate Ukraine

    Football - men's group matches: Ukraine 0-2 Argentina, Morocco 3-0 Iraq

    Argentina score their second goalReuters

    Claudio Echeverri scoring Argentina's second goal

    Argentina have beaten Ukraine 2-0 to qualify for the quarter-finals in the men's football group phase, a result that eliminates Ukraine.

    Morocco also advance following a 3-0 win over Iraq and that means they go through as Group B winners with Argentina second.

    By failing to win the group, that means Argentina will probably face hosts France in a tasty last-eight tie.

  16. Don't read too much into the standings

    Gymnastics - women's team final

    Sonia Oxley
    BBC Sport in Paris

    The standings in gymnastics can be really misleading... you can only really compare the teams who are competing on the same apparatus, so in this case GB are paired up with Romania, and USA are in with Italy.

    That's because vault scores tend to be higher than, say, beam, so certain teams won't have competed on the higher-scoring apparatus yet.

  17. gymnastics

    Gymnastics - women's team final

    Romania's Lilia Cosman is first up to vault and she scores 13.433.

    GB's Georgia Mae-Fenton is next up.

  18. Paris 2024 - day four so far

  20. 'Really good movement'

    Men's doubles second round - Alcaraz/Nadal 6-4 2-2 *Griekspoor/Koolhof

    Nadal is moving very much more comfortably than he was yesterday – and the Dutch really don’t know where to go.

    There’s been really good movement from Alcaraz – they didn’t know he would be around the net.

    They can’t get in a trade with them because the Spaniard’s ground-strokes are too heavy. They are having to cover their tram[lines] because they are being assaulted down the line.
